Lymphatic Drainage Massage in Central Istanbul
Long hours at a desk, a busy schedule, salty meals or simply a day with little movement can show up as heavy legs or a bloated stomach in the evening. At our salon lymphatic drainage is not done by hand: it uses a device with an air-pressure treatment garment (a full suit), whose rhythmic pressure waves support the natural flow of the lymphatic system.
Renew & Revive is a beauty salon on Abide-i Hürriyet Avenue in Şişli, one of Istanbul's central districts. We offer lymphatic drainage on its own or as part of a body contouring plan. For a general overview of the treatment see our lymph drainage service page; this page focuses on how sessions are planned and how to find us if you are visiting or living in Istanbul.
Who Is It For?
- People who sit or stand all day and feel heavy, swollen legs by the evening,
- Anyone who often feels bloated around the stomach,
- Those who want to add lymphatic support to a body contouring plan,
- Anyone looking for a relaxing, light-pressure body treatment — including after a long flight.
Who should check with a doctor first?
If you are pregnant, have a heart condition, an active infection, a fever or a clotting disorder, or if you have swelling that is one-sided, painful or came on suddenly, please see a doctor before booking. Swelling like this can be a sign of a health problem and should not be handled with a beauty treatment.
How Are Sessions Planned?
- Assessment: we talk about your concern, your daily routine (how much you sit, how much you move) and your goal.
- Treatment: you change into disposable clothing and the air-channel treatment garment (full suit) is fitted; pressure is set to your comfort.
- Frequency: lymphatic drainage is usually done once a week or at intervals set according to your needs. If your goal is body contouring, it can be combined with G5 massage or Smart EMS.
- Tracking: in body contouring plans we track progress with centimetre measurements before each session.
Tips for the Day of Your Session
- Wear comfortable clothes that are easy to change out of.
- Avoid a heavy meal right before your appointment.
- Drink enough water through the day; a short walk afterwards helps.
- Eating less salt and moving regularly supports the effect. For home tips, read how to reduce water retention.
